Assessment & Evaluation

How are students evaluated?
Students are evaluated by the Medical School Competencies using multiple methods of assessment, such as problem-based learning small-group participation, quizzes, exams (internal and national) in pre-clerkship and/or clerkship phases.
In Doctoring - and all of the core clerkships - performance-based methods of assessment are employed such as Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs). Students are also directly observed by attendings, residents, and nurses, interviewing patients or completing a physical examination in the clinical setting. Students’ oral skills are assessed by presenting the patient to a physician and producing write-ups of patient encounters in Doctoring and the core clerkships.
